On the picture you see your hexc fan spinning , while your fan of your psu looks like it's doing nothing . Just a question , did you short your psu (like putting a paperclip on the green and black wire ? If the hexc get's 12volt the red led wil be blinking
(Pardon my english)
That may be his problem, looks like he only has a 12V rail connected. I can't see the 20+4 MB connector, you would need to attach that to the PSU and short the PS ON pin.

I have a corsair rm750 which has 0rpm mode with the fan if less than 40% of total watt is used. Should the fans spin when i only plug them into the psu? Ok just read about shorting the PSU howevr all my wires are black edit: youtube saved me.. http://i39.tinypic.com/j8czrr.jpg

you should connect the 24pin atx connector and put in a paperclip or a little piece of power cable in the green and black wire like in the picture , i`don`t know if your fan is going to spin i think it will i have corsair cx 750m and when i put in a paperclip in my green and black wire the fan spins without even connecting any device to the psu.. http://s8.postimg.org/z174nra3l/download.jpgso do this: disconnect the psu from the wall socket connect 24 pin atx put paperclip in green and black wire put some electrical tape on top of the paperclip (24 pin connector) make shure every thing is connected to the HEXc power on psu happy hashing

Hi
Has anyone got these working using cgminer 3.10 on win 7?
I have got them running on hexminer but I am a bit worried that my anti virus shows hex as having a virus and I have just had 0.1621 stolen from my bitcoin wallet

Hello Zich, Can i ask you for help, i'm really lost. ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) I just got my miners yesterday, and i'm suffering a lot to make them working. Thanks Bestalg Hi bestalg, Very sorry to not respond in time since i am only online from 01:00 - 14:00 UTC. Like loshia said, i think you should buy single rail PSU, so you don't had to worry about rail maximum load ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Antec HCG Series HCG-900W is four rail.

Hi mudge, The cgminer patch for detecting HEX16 only work on linux. So on windows 7 only HEXMINER available right now. Or you can use virtual pc installed on win7 to run linux. I already test this with HEX16C. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=323727.msg4198171#msg4198171But the best way is to use TPLINK TL-MR3020 as host, but then you will need separate PSU ofc. Feel free to ask us here about the setup ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

.............. Does those nonces = 0 mean they are not working or damaged? Maybe you can help Marto Thanks!
Smells like dead chips to me Yeah sound like dead chip. Or you can try to visual check if there is any missing component or unclean solder. I mark the chip base on component numbering in schematic but you can make sure by measuring the chip temperature or by touching the chip. Working chip will be very hot ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fs26.postimg.org%2F41z1svx1l%2FSSL24336r2.jpg&t=665&c=FId90AVVysdjvw) If all clean then you need to send back to marto.

Might take a while) Are you waiting for HEXA2 (Avalon 2) boards? If yes according to marto post they will feed the hub with 5V. However if you gona use them with tp-link and you have it in hand i suggest to run lsusb when hub is connected and see if tplink supports that hub. It happen to me with some d-links that they work with PC but tp-link is not seeing them Once again if you live in Germany and want nonstop operation just by the one I suggested. I can guarantee you you will not regret ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

No joks it was explained by kano..You can dig the info for it. but changing it to 800 will reduce CPU load for sure. However it can reduce nanos hashrate. In theory up to 1300 should be fine without impact on the hashrate but according to my observations it is not quite true. In general you have to pump same job to the chip (and getting response from it) and watch when it will ask for new one. I do not know exactly speaking of timing when chip is asking for new one. But what i know that as fast you pump it the chance to delay the time for the new job is lower. Unfortunately pumping each 5 ms as it was in first version generates a lot of IO and CPU load but insures that you will never leave chip workless ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) . We need to found good compromise and sweet spot how much IO/CPU load to suffer. Got it? PS: I am not bitfury chip expert and if someone can comment on it i am all years

First big delay reduces cpu load ....

Happy mining:) It doesn't need a powered hub right? I got one hub that I still have lying around from my block erupter days. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I'm just worried I might not have enough molex power plugs. lol (Ordered some of Amazon. Might take a while) Are you waiting for HEXA2 (Avalon 2) boards? If yes according to marto post they will feed the hub with 5V. However if you gona use them with tp-link and you have it in hand i suggest to run lsusb when hub is connected and see if tplink supports that hub. It happen to me with some d-links that they work with PC but tp-link is not seeing them Once again if you live in Germany and want nonstop operation just by the one I suggested. I can guarantee you you will not regret ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Yep. I hope it does (Worked fine on a Ras Pi I owned) In America man. lol. Yep. I have that tp-link router. Haven't flashed it yet though.
